Wow! Great job! Looks amazing now!

Vin295 · 07-20-2018, 09:47 PM

Thought I'd post a few photos that were taken recently.

This is my 2013 320d E92. Haven't done anything crazy to it.

Gloss black kidney grilles.
Gloss black roof wrap.
Gloss black spoiler.

I've also debadged it but these were taken before then.

On the search for a front lip at the moment.

badmanners · 07-20-2018, 10:24 PM

That looks great Vin295, it looks like you had the window surrounds wrapped as well? How much did all that set you back?
Cheers, badmanners.

Trev88 · 07-20-2018, 10:28 PM

Nice m performance setup! Do you have the m performance power kit too?

Thanks mate, that actually came done with the original vehicle. Was pretty lucky to get an LCI with the black trim, black mirror caps, m-sport seats etc.

The roof wrap cost me $200 from Most Wanted Garage in Melbourne. Painted the grilles myself, they turned out alright. Might purchase some OEM ones eventually.

Cheers man. Nah I don't unfortunately.

These cars look so much better with colour coded rear diffusers, if my car was any colour other than black id have it that way.

Socket · 07-22-2018, 01:22 AM

Welcome aboard Vin..... great looking coupe
White is my second fav colour after space grey (of course lol)

Hope to catch you at one of the meets

Hoper · 07-25-2018, 05:14 PM

Got the new airbag fitted under the recall, definitely a new pad and roundel

Unfortunately it didn't clear myfaulty restraint system code, so still more work to do to fix that

At least Rolfe BMW in Canberra washed the car for me

Hahaha cheers Socket. One day for sure.

Hoper · 07-26-2018, 07:23 AM

Mate of mine bought this since he liked the e92 335i so much

Yes I've already discussed the list of maintenance we'll be doing on it straight away

and it's a manual

Sorry socks fixed now, and I'm jealous, I love his colour combo...

It's a 2007 with just over 100k KMs on it

Looks like it's in really good condition

Mayuri Krab · 08-02-2018, 05:23 AM

Scraped it and now looking at buying either a f30 335i, vw golf r mk7 or the local fpv f6 & hsvs...

badmanners · 08-13-2018, 04:23 AM

Added some Akebono pads, RDA rotors and some Kumho PS71 tyres to the rear of my 335i E92, I can't believe how much better the car feels after ditching half the run-flats on it, it will be a spiritual experience when I do the fronts as well!
Tempe Tyres at $169 ea, wasn't a bad price at all.

ridding the world of run flats one rim at a time

Hoper · 08-24-2018, 05:23 PM

Nothing yet, but parts arrived for maintenance on my car and my mates recent purchase, most importantly water pump since it has 107k on it and it hasn't been done yet

Oh and he took mine for a drive and of course now has the modding bug, said he thought his went pretty good stock, got out of mine all wide eyed and started talking MHD, intercooler and catless DP's

Pic 1 parts
Pic 2 his new ride

Socket · 08-26-2018, 05:12 AM

Got it started

Nice work Vince
